Transitioning to New Chapter Coordinators

Richelle and Angie Stepping Down

Richelle Braswell and Angie McCauley will step down as co-coordinators for the North Texas chapter in the coming months. We've loved serving our chapter as coordinators and look forward to continuing to be involved members of the chapter. Unfortunately, we no longer have the time capacity to serve as coordinators, as we need to focus more on our businesses.

Our plan is to oversee the full transition to Your Membership (EFA’s new community platform) and ensure we’ve implemented all the new and updated procedures for chapter coordinators before stepping down. We hope to complete that process by the end of September. As we finalize the transition, we will begin training new co-coordinators to take over for us.

Ever thought of becoming a chapter coordinator?

One member has volunteered to step up as a co-coordinator for our chapter, but we are looking for one more person to serve alongside them. Their time as coordinators will begin this fall and continue through at least the end of EFA’s next fiscal year, August 31, 2026. If you are interested in volunteering for this role (or just finding out more about it), please email both Richelle and Angie at hello@richellebraswell.com and angie@angiesediting.com. We’d be happy to discuss it with you.
